HEALTHBACK HOME HEALTH DEPLOYS HOMECARE HOMEBASE SOFTWARE AUTOMATION SOLUTION
August 5, 2008
(Dallas, TX) – Today, HealthBack Home Health announced plans to deploy the Homecare Homebase agency automation software solution. HealthBack, headquartered in Oklahoma City, OK, is a provider of home healthcare services. Operating 27 dedicated homecare facilities; HealthBack is one of the largest home health organizations in Oklahoma.  

HealthBack faced a challenge in finding the right agency automation solution, one that offered best-in-class clinical, operational and financial management in the home health environment. Most of all, they focused on finding a solution that would allow their staff to deliver each patient the greatest level of care at home.

Using powerful handheld PDAs running the Homecare Homebase PointCare solution, HealthBack Home Health nurses will share patient data in real-time with everyone involved in the patient’s circle of care. Transmitted across standard wireless networks to a centralized data center, the patient data is encrypted to ensure confidentiality and meet or exceed HIPAA security standards. This powerful technology allows caregivers to spend more time with the patient, and less time completing lengthy, redundant paperwork or rifling for the right forms, ultimately giving them time to focus on delivering better care.  

As the Homecare Homebase solution captures and shares the information, everyone involved with the patient’s care – nurses, doctors, and more – have up-to-date information at their fingertips. Ultimately, this allows HealthBack the ability to better care for their patients.

Every aspect of the Homecare Homebase system was developed by industry veterans to be user-friendly, flexible and customizable to any agency. “This truly is the best solution for any homecare agency,” said Michael Curtis, CFO, HealthBack. “Not only will it streamline our activities at the point of care, but it will ultimately allow our staff more time to spend on patient care and improving outcomes, with less energy wasted on paperwork and redundant tasks. It also provides us powerful insight into the operational effectiveness of our business through its various reporting tools.”

“Our flexible, practical software solution is developed to best fit the needs of the end user,” said Tom Maxwell, COO, Homecare Homebase. “We have worked closely with HealthBack to develop a solution that improves homecare, allowing them to focus on their first priority, the patients.”
